Kansas City based
wedding photographer

I focus on capturing true moments in a natural and easy way
—no stiff poses, just the real you.
I’m based out of Kansas City but will happily travel wherever photos are needed!

From our clients

“I have used Edwards Photo Co multiple times over the last few years. She did our engagements, wedding and two maternity shoots for us and every time made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and listened to what we wanted. She is very timely when it comes to getting our photos back and is down to go wherever we want for photos. I can’t recommend Katie and Edwards Photo Co enough!"

— Megan

“Katie was an awesome photographer for our engagement and wedding! She made us feel so comfortable throughout the process and our photos look so natural as a result! It felt like we had known her for years. We would recommend Katie as an excellent photographer for capturing all of the special details of your big day!”

— Paige & Justin

“Katie and Will did a beautiful job. Kind and easy to work with, they captured the day with creativity and skill. I am so happy we worked with them.”

— Katie M.

“Working with Katie and Will was awesome! They're very good at taking the awkward out of photo shoots and are easy to work with as well. They're both really funny too. Oh and the pics were incredible!”

Hi! I’m Katie

Let's get to know each other! I live in Kansas City but grew up in Texas. I have two dogs - Space Camper and Olive Garden. I love reading, paddle boarding, spending time in the desert, and picking up hobbies that I drop a week later. I’ve been married since September of 2022 (so I’ve recently done the wedding planning thing).

My favorite thing in the world is capturing memories, and I still get weepy when capturing the really impactful ones. I may or may not shed a tear behind the camera, don't worry about it. My hope is that I can create a space for you and your partner to be yourselves so I can capture your love as authentically as possible. Everyone's love story deserves to be shared, and I'm here to help share yours.

Photos made to stand
the test of time

My goal is to create photos that are authentic & timeless. I promise you’ll love them just as much in 50 years as you do today!

Overall my photography style is very laid back and natural. I am a documentary-style photographer, meaning I capture candid moments over posed shots. The little in-between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not a fan of awkward poses and forced smiles. If you feel awkward in front of the camera, don’t even worry about it. I have plenty of bad jokes and embarrassing stories to make you feel comfy (I’ve also ripped my pants & gotten a nose bleed during a shoot, which really helped the comfort level).

There are only so many angles and poses and pretty locations - but what makes each photo special is the memories attached to it, and my goal is to make those unique to you!
